Success Stories

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Ruthie Ravenel as an outstanding real estate broker. My family and I had the privilege of working with Ruthie over an extended period of time, and her professionalism, dedication, and unwavering support were unparalleled throughout our entire home-buying journey in Charleston, South Carolina. We were introduced to Ruthie through a close college friend, and from our very first interaction, we knew we were in exceptional hands. Ruthie immediately took the time to set up a Zoom call to get to know us, understand our needs, and make plans for our visit. Unfortunately, our initial plans were abruptly canceled due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Remarkably, when …
I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Ruthie Ravenel as an outstanding real estate broker. My family and I had the privilege of working with Ruthie over an extended period of time, and her professionalism, dedication, and unwavering support were unparalleled throughout our entire home-buying journey in Charleston, South Carolina. We were introduced to Ruthie through a close college friend, and from our very first interaction, we knew we were in exceptional hands. Ruthie immediately took the time to set up a Zoom call to get to know us, understand our needs, and make plans for our visit. Unfortunately, our initial plans were abruptly canceled due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Remarkably, when we reconnected with Ruthie over two years later, it was as if no time had passed. She picked up right where we left off, with the same enthusiasm and commitment to helping us find our dream home. Ruthie’s patience, positivity, and belief in us never wavered, even when our search extended longer than anticipated. She tirelessly organized home visits, providing invaluable insights about each property while expertly guiding us through the Charleston market. Her deep knowledge of the area, combined with her impressive network of connections, gave us a clear advantage in navigating the competitive landscape. When we reached out a year later for another round of house hunting, Ruthie’s tenacity, fresh perspective, and open heart were once again on full display. This time, we found the perfect home and successfully in contract before boarding the plane to return to San Francisco. Throughout the process, Ruthie’s relentless dedication and unwavering support made all the difference. She was always one step ahead, ensuring we were fully informed and comfortable every step of the way. Once we closed on the house, she kindly helped us with inspections, contractors and other connections as we lived in another city. This is the over and beyond that she never mentioned when we first met her. We went into this process looking for something specific—starting over on a new coast, building a new life for our children, with a new house that we could call home. But in finding Ruthie, we discovered something far greater. We found a new friend, a new family, and a new future to look forward to. In summary, Ruthie Ravenel is not just an exceptional broker, but a genuine partner in the home-buying process. Her energy, expertise, and sincere commitment to her clients are unrivaled, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

As newcomers to Charleston in 2019 we were lucky to engage Ruthie Ravenel as our realtor. She was very thorough as we looked at a wide variety of homes which she had selected to show us all the city had to offer, while assessing our interests and helping us decide what would work best for us. She was patient, honest and always followed through on our requests. Ultimately buying our first home South of Broad, Ruthie proved to be an effective negotiator resulting in the purchase. We recently sold that house as our needs changed and bought another home within the same neighborhood. We were extremely fortunate to have Ruthie represent us in all these transactions, and certainly will use her again. She is the…

Ruthie is extremely dedicated, fast, knowledgeable, honest and easy to work with. My husband and I had only been to Charleston a handful of times before we decided to purchase a home, so she had her work cut out for her. Ruthie spent multiple full weekends driving us around, showing us a variety of options within our budget and giving us insight into different areas, neighborhoods, etc. All in all she showed us about 50 homes, and when it was time to submit an offer, she walked us through everything, negotiated with the seller, and made the process of an out of state home purchase and move as pain free as possible. We are so very grateful that we found Ruthie and that she helped us buy our first home! She…

Ruthie could not have made the process of selling our home from afar, we moved to Michigan from Charleston smoother or easier. She is amazing. Ruthie handled everything and our house was under contract in 36 hours from the time it went live as an active listing. We were so happy with Ruthie every step of the way and we are so grateful to her for all her hard work to get our home sold fast and with an offer we were so pleased with. My only regret is that we did not use Ruthie when we first moved to Charleston and bought our home. I could not recommend her enough. Her knowledge of the market and of Charleston is unparalleled. My first call will be to Ruthie when we hopefully move back to Charleston in the n…
